What Causes Syncope With A Dry Mouth And Light Headed Feelings?

I felt really light headed and my body seemed to lose all use of body functions . I got extremely dry mouth and was passing out as I was driving. Lucky I parked and rested. My head cleared and I drove home. I never had that happened before and It scared me

Hello,
Welcome to HCM.
I understand your concern.
Most probably what you had was an acute anxiety state or a panic attack.
If you get these episodes again, it is better to see a doctor and have it diagnosed and more serious conditions excluded.
Take care
